jaxbamf73 - 2009-10-10 8:06 PM Did some shopping today: new shoes, running running shorts and shirts...new stuff always makes you feel faster.


new stuff DOES make you feel faster!

im thinkin' my brandy new fuel belt did it for me yesturday. 

i dont like to shop.  i know, gasp.

but.....

shopping for running schwag, THATS the BEST!

was there a special occassion for your spree?

then im thinking.  does there need to be when it comes to running/tri gear. 

stacieb


Needed the new shoes and never really bought "running shorts."  I've always running in either tri shorts or basketball style gym shorts.  I must say the difference in gym and running  shorts was an eye-opener.


x2 on that... One of my first runs this past spring was a local 8k that I ran with a few friends. When I showed up in basketball shorts, my friend (who's an experienced runner) mentioned I'd probably enjoy running more in shorts designed for that activity. I didn't think much of it until I experienced some, ahem, chaffage after the run. The next day I got my first real running shorts and haven't worn the basketball shorts out running since.


Yes, and running shorts are, ahem, much more liberating!

no really? please do tell us more!??!??

No realllly~

and may I just say ~~~'specially when you run distances you run! and I can probably very safely say you will never go back to running in gym shorts! so any more bottles of beer knocked off the wall today???



8 bottles knocked off the wall followed by 8 bottles consumed at the local pub after seeing Zombieland!

well then....sounds like you are a new member of the FBI

FUN

BEER-DRINKING

INDIVIDUAL

hope you had your bike and crash helmet for the ride home! or better yet you were home!

just looking out for you - ya know!?!?!

I sure wouldn't want you ending up in the klinker...how would you finish your 100 miles for the monthly challenge and continue to knock all those bottles off the wall??? What I mean is ~ that would stink going to jail.

hehe

iowagander - 2009-10-11 3:39 PM Alright, the food verdict is in. I'm making a Mediterranean-ish salad with vinagrette dressing, chicken, and Italian sausage, and some garlic bread. Good stuff!

good stuff indeed! the salad would go great with my chili and cornbread! and sounds much better then my boring lettuce/tomato/cucumber salad.



That WOULD go good with chili and cornbread. mmm, cornbread... Sorry, got distracted. The salad's really easy to make. Romaine lettuce, cucumber, red onion, calametta olives, strawberries, feta cheese, and the aforementioned vinagrette. Sometimes I also add green onions, carrots, etc. The nice thing with salads is it's easy to add things and difficult to screw it up. My kind of recipe!

Well with tri shorts, your goodies are all jammed up tween some lycra and a chamois.  With gym shorts, you have to wear some sort of brief (I prefer dri-fit material boxer-briefs).    Running shorts have a built in liner that negates the need for said briefs.  For cooler days I did find a pair of Asics that had a compresion-style boxer brief.  I hope I made that sound as clinical as possible to deprive you of any possible enjoyment you may have derived for such a description

That's why I always carry my own personal DD...that way if we have a few too many, she goes to jail and I get a ride home   J/K!   She rarely has more than 2 drinks and never more than 2 if she's driving me home.

I'll second all this, and just add that the built in liner of my running shorts keeps things in check, but in a comfortable and controlled kind of way without the bunching/wedgie issues caused by running with stand-alone briefs/boxer briefs.

No new runs in today, but I did work...lots of swine flu triage, both on the phone and in person. That counts for something, doesn't it?

Morning Ghoulies!  Today's run done.  5 more miles in the log.  Lots of "junk" on the roads these days.....pine cones, acorns, sticks & stuff.  Even with my head lamp it's a bit iffy.  No choice though.  If I don't run in the morning, it just doesn't happen.

Should be an interesting week for me.  I'll be working 60-70 hours as opposed to my normal 40 and workouts will have to occur in the morning or else they won't get done.  Gulp!  Wish me luck!

sick kid at home.

messes with my plans.

poor thing.

fever and everything.

ah well.  good exercise in being flexible.

him getting better is primary, but after that....my runs are the most critical workouts this week. 

and DH is ALWAYS good about letting me go to the Y in the evening.

hopefully for his sake (and mine) this is a 24 hr hickamabob.
